Few pages back, but I would love to know what modell that brown couch table is or where you bought it?

Good to know because i just bought a 4k tv! I was afraid it would look like hooking an old ps2 up to a 1080p TV with composite cables.

Anyone ever ask where you got the canvas above your bed? That's awesome.
It's a painting from Talantbek Chekirov. I got it in a store in Germany.

Wonderful. Turns out it's called "Heaven in New York". I'm definitely going to end up getting that. it's such a fantastic piece. Even my girlfriend loves it.
Moved to the US 6 months ago, been living here for a few months. Still work to do, I really need to get some paintings/photos for the walls. Also a better camera
Where u getthat desk?
It's this desk:

I like it too
Would consider the 300 series
They dont list a price
How much would somethjng like yours go for?
I bought it through a local specialty furniture shop, and it was $1800 with the chair. It is very solidly built.
You wouldn't want to put a high heat gaming rig in there though, as it is designed for office PCs and doesn't have much ventilation. I don't play PC games much, mainly use it for visual studio, etc - so heat hasn't been an issue.

Need some updated pics now that I've got a PS4, but yeah I guess this is my gaming setup.

I'm ready to start the office this week but one thing which I've completely forgot about is a good chair. I don't want to spend loads on one but I've been looking at some at IKEA.
Any recommendations on the Markus? http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/20103101
I had a full leather one from Staples a few years ago and it really fucked my lower back/lumbar. I feel the mesh on the Markus may be something I'm more looking for in terms of comfort and coolness so you don't get too hot.
The room is going to be quite a squeeze. I hope I can achieve what I need and leave the room looking minimal. I've got to fix in 2 work spaces on 2 sides into a corner, place a PS4, XB1, 360, PC, 24" monitor and 46" LED. Plus other bits and bobs such as external HDDs, cables adaptors, cap cards and more. I'll be fitting in atleast 2 possibly 3 ULLRIK storage units. I may need to cut the depth of the LINNMON work tops down a few inches as well.

So here's mine. Obviously not a glamorous setup. It's in an unfinished basement that I laid carpet on. I don't mind that it doesn't look pretty, it's all about function over form for me, and this baby has got plenty of function. Just got the whole thing completely set up to my liking last night.
Consoles: PS4, Xbox One, Xbox 360, 2 PS3s, NES, Super Nintendo
TVs (from left to right): 19" Panasonic (for the retro consoles), 42" 720p Olevia LCD, 60" 1080p LG Plasma, 42" 1080p Olevia LCD, 19" 720p no-name brand LED.
Sony 7.2 Receiver
The beautiful part of this setup is that I use an HD Homerun Prime and HTPC as my cable setup. This means I can stream to the 360 and both PS3s at the same time, giving me up to 3 HD cable channels at any given moment (ideal for sports viewing, especially during college football season). All the TVs are also hooked up through standard coax cable, so they can receive HD local channels and SD for basic cable channels.
Additionally, I've got my Xbox 360 on an HDMI switch so it can be displayed on either the LG or the Olevia on the right. My main PS3 is also on an HDMI switch, so it can go between the LG or the Olevia on the left. The other PS3 is only hooked up to the Olevia on the right.
And this is a picture of some sweet Marvel art deco posters I found recently and framed.

Those posters are fantastic. Do you know where they're from, or where to buy them? I'm a sucker for art deco.

My path to getting them was winding. First spotted them at Wal-Mart, but they only had Spider-Man and Captain America (no sign of the others). Then I found Hulk at Target (I think Target also carries Spider-Man, but no Captain America). Then I went to a store called Five Below and found all five of them, including the Iron Man and Thor I'd not ever seen before. But I visited several Five Belows and only found these posters at a couple of them, so it can be kind of hit and miss there. Good luck!

Yes it is. I used a cutter (actually it's a Gunpla art knife) to open it
And a tape to keep the plastic on. So it will look like a brand new !!
Just like this.
And this is my old vid about how to do it. (I just re-upload it.)
That's kinda neat. I'm gonna steal your idea.

Believe it or not, I just picked up the Thor one at Five Below for $5. IIRC, they had all of them. Last thing I ever expected to find there.

Where did you get that table?
Also, is that enough room for your mouse to move around. The space looks too small. I would put the mouse/kb on the table :/

I have a fairly large master bedroom, and no other way to gain much privacy during the day, so my 'office' is one corner where I sleep.

Going to do a little rearranging tonight and see if I can get a cleaner look. Need another Lack shelf or two to put these cars on.

Fixed this up a few days ago, but I didn't want it to seem like I was spamming.
I swapped the two monitors, because the left one has the power button on the right-hand side. This allowed me to move the center channel in front of the monitors. I removed some other 'junk' but haven't really found a good place for it yet. The Trans Am model helps hide the USB cables, but I'm going to keep working on that. You can barely see the new console additions to the lower right corner of the pic.
Also, I did complete my render for the living room entertainment area.
The grey translucent is glass, the clear translucent on the bottom is actually going to be white speaker mesh to control and vent all the components. Not exactly final, as I'm debating putting it on legs to match the sideboard, but close enough.
The desk is an Ikea Galant with a side attachment.
It is enough room for the mouse (relatively higher pointer speed). I attached this keyboard tray from a previous desk specifically to gain access to that space between the monitors and the edge of the desk.

Man I try. But with 3 consoles, directv receiver, a home audio system and 2 routers...it just turns into a mess. Best I can do is hide it as much as possible.
It's very difficult if you have a lot of cables.
I mean I didn't count them but I have around 50 different cables (LAN, USB, power, audio, video) in my 3.1x4.6m room.

How are you planning to fix the speaker mesh to your doors? I was thinking along the same lines to help hide my STBs etc under the TV

Are you building this, or buying shelving units? If you're building it, I think you ought to consider hiding the speakers somewhere.
I would say that the people who have turned their entire open living area into a gaming palace are probably single, or not living with their significant other.
Those who have their stuff in more closed off areas are more likely to be married/living with someone.
That makes sense. And yes I am extremely jealous because being with someone has totally crushed my dreams of a setup like this. Is that bad to say lol.

What do you have? I may have messy cables but I'll put my system up against any wireless/soundbar/bose lifestyle system. My place is not an apple Mac store and sometimes having cables around are part and parcel of having a good system.

Most likely staples, or a trim ring on the inside like how glass is secured.
I don't know what I'm doing with the speakers yet. Might do in-wall. I'm still using these tiny JVC front channel ones that actually work rather well. I could always make the outside bottom cabinets the same speaker material and hide them in there.
And yes, I am building it from scratch. Will probably have to buy a turbine to recreate that glossy finish you get buying from Ikea or elsewhere. Since I have some other stuff to do first, my ETA is open at this point. Probably won't even start on it until late 2015.
I love this attitude. Props! I like things tidy, yes, but everything invisible is just too much.
I'm not always single, but when I am, I play a lot of games on my awesome setup

Most of these setups are slick. Can someone recommend me a comfortable computer chair for my bedroom, nothing too expensive though I really dont want to spend loads on a chair
Spend loads on the chair. It's a good investment for durability and lower cost over time and for your health.
I have a Denon AVR, 5 speakers, 1 subwoofer, multiple charging / dock areas, 6 consoles, and multiple other home theatre components.
Do you see a cable? Good system is no excuse for laziness.
